I just built a Kanthal coil for my first Squonk mod... It's vaping like a champ! I've been using TC and titanium G1, for it's obvious (to me) health benefits, it being a medically accepted "pure" metal..I'm so psyched to get a Catfish Stumpy for my squonk mod. I've been using a Stumpy clone for a few mos. The question is... Do any of you use Ti G1 with your mech mods?
I realize that there is an issue with over heating Ti as far as creating titanium oxide, as I understand it that is only created around 3200 deg F. I'm sure that you experienced Vaporers will have opinions and knowledge of such an endeavor.. I hope this isn't on the wrong forum, If it's not a relavent subject matter please forgive me? Thank You Very Much!, Ted
Never mind... I found it!!!!

CH, you have any of these in stock by chance? I remember hearing about them here....JH mentioned them in Mr Mann's dripper thread N8 Mods - Solstice V1 RDA
Yes sir. Two regular and two LXV editions. Probably the easiest of all the 2 post attys to build on. I still have one that I use occasionally, well built atty.

Hmmm. Might look funny - but I was rewicking, gave it a go, and DAMN, fresh wick, fresh battery, my usual simple dual 0.45-ish build, and it's vaping JUST RIGHT.

OK, I moved the Ni coil around & rewicked it but kept hitting temp protect so I trashed it since it wasn't satisfying at all. I did a Ti build instead, 26awg, pinched coil at .45 ohms. Much much better, tons of vapor & taste at 320f (i.e. actual 420f due to Ti being set 100 degree's lower than desired temp)

I had this problem when I started using the dna40 vs. 350j. What worked for me was to increase temp to 530f at first. After a couple of hours I was able to back down to 480-490 without it hitting T. P. Which is still way higher than what I am used to.

How do would you compare the Thump to the Stumpy? I know it is better with duals. What about leakage, airflow, etc. thanks!!

I had the fortune of having a Thump gifted to me by our very own @m3th1dz, talk about incredible generosity! Anyway, I absolutely love the Thump although the Stumpy is pretty darn good too, tough call but it depends on how you like your airflow. I am not a big air kind of guy, two holes on the Thump is perfect, I'm still playing with the Stumpy to find my sweet spot. Everyone absolutely loves the Stumpy but I don't think you can go wrong either way, it's nice having a dual coil atty on one mod & a single coil on the other for different vapes as the mood allows. Right now the Ti build is as good as Kanthal on my Stumpy, I haven't tried anything but Kanthal on the Thump. Get both, you can't loose then!

The Shingen demos arrived today, the center pin looks like an m2 making it a no go unless I can re-bore and thread them for at least m2.5 or even better m3.

I will say these look like they were made in the same factory as the Vector; meaning that they are machined beautifully, no manta or hastur weirdness. Looks like another catfish exclusive, no one else is going to rethread and make pins for this. It's just not worth the time and aggravation for anyone else.
